Dirrell predicts knockout win for Abraham over Froch

By Scott Gilfoid: Once beaten Andre Dirrell (19-1, 13 KO’s) is picking knockout artist Arthur Abraham (31-1, 25 KO’s) to defeat former WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch (26-1, 20 KO’s) on November 27th according to news from Bettor.com. Dirrell should know who the better fighter is because he just finished fighting Froch and Abraham back to back, losing to Froch and beating Abraham. However, many boxing fans feel that Dirrell should have won both of the fights he dominated Froch but lost the fight when two of the European judges gave Froch the decision over the American Dirrell. Froch was fighting in front of a hometown crowd in Nottingham at the time of his fight with Dirrell.

Dirrell thinks Abraham’s defensive skills will also help him beat Froch in their stage 3 Super Six bout. Abraham is very hard to hit in the head due to his high guard that he likes to use. Froch has talked about aiming his shots downstairs at Abraham’s midsection to take advantage of his high guard. However, Abraham is good at firing back counter shots immediately when he’s hit in the midsection, and this could backfire for Froch if he tries to go to the body with any significant shots.

I have to go with whoever Dirrell is picking in this fight, because he has after all fought both guys and knows them well. Dirrell made Froch look silly for most of the fight with his exccellent defensive skills. Again and again, Froch missed with his punches. In the 5th, Froch went ballistic and turned the fight into an MMA-type affair, as he body slammed a shocked Dirrell to the canvas. After Dirrell got back to his feet, Froch then spent the better part of the fight holding and hitting, wrestling and throwing rabbit shots while the referee stood idly by letting it all happen.

PEACE

  • TOM BRITT says:

    RINGSIDE IS ABOUT 12 TO 20 SLOW WITTED GUYS FROM KINGS GYM WHO PUT THERE IDEAS TOGETHER AND COME ALL BUT EMPTY TRYING TO COMBAT 3 DIFFERENT INDIVIDUALS WHO EACH IN HIS OWN UNIQUE WAY WORKING ALONE MAKES FOOLS OUT OF THE COLLECTIVE MORONIC GROUP CALLED RINGSIDE.

  • TOM BRITT says:

    ARMO ****ABRAHAM WILL BE IN HELSINKI SUNDAY AND IN A INTERVIEW HE SAID” I WILL TURN HELSINKI INTO HELL-SINK-E FOR FROCH.THE BATTLE LINES ARE DRAWN. HE ALSO SAID THAT FROM THE DIRRELL FIGHT HE LEARNED THAT HE CANT WAITE TILL THE LATER ROUNDS AND HE INTENDS TO PRESS THE FIGHT FROM THE OPENING BELL. IF HE DOES I EXPECT SOMEONE TO GO DOWN EARLY.HE SOUNDED TO ME LIKE HE HAS PENT UP ENEGERY AND HES IN TOP SHAPE .HE HAS WITHOUT QUESTION TOTAL CONFIDENCE THAT HE WILL WIN. IT MUST HAVE BEEN DANCING AND UP AND DOWN ON THE STOOL EXERCISES .

  • Armenian says:

  • Armenian says:

    wow andre ward is so favorite he got only 8 comments in his blog. As he has 8 fans out of the Oakland.

  • Armenian says:

    man who is this guy called RINGSIDE? I hope this is not Dirrells grandfather???

  • Anonymous says:

    RINGSIDE – ON WORLDLY HORIZIONS. YOURS MOSTLY CONSIST OF GOING FROM THE MENS ROOM TO THE LOCKER ROOM TO THE MAIN BOXING AERA TO THE RING AND ONCE A MONTH TO THE OFFICE TO PAY RENT. THEN BACK THRU THE BOXING AERA TO THE MENS ROOM TO THE LOCKER ROOM . ALL YOUR PATHIC LIFE DEVOTED TO THE WORLDLY CONFINES IN KINGS JYM.WHEN YOU FINNALLY GO HOME AT NIGHT DID YOU EVER WOUNDER WHY YOU SMELL LIKE A JOCK STRAP?

  • PRIVATE EYE says:

    THIS LATEST VERSION OF RINGSIDE KEEPS SLIPPING WITH DRE RATHER THEN WARD. I DONT THINK HUNTER WOULD DO THAT. COULD HAVE DIRRELLS BROTHER TAKIN OVER THE ROLL AS THE RINGSIDE POSTER? HE IS MOSTLY FOCUSED ABOUT DIRRELL AND NOT MUCH ON WARD.HUNTER HAS LITTLE INTEREST IN DIRRELL. SO IM SURE THIS IS A REPLACEMENT FROM DIRRELLS CAMP.

  • TOM BRITT says:

    RINGSIDE PLEASE GET YOUR BOYS STRIGHT ONE POST ITS DRE. THAT I ASSUME IS DIRRELL. THE NEXT POST ITS WARD. WHOS IT GOING TO BE NEXT? AS NOT BEING IN YOUR WORLD I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT BEFORE. THANKS : THE IDEA GIVES ONE MORE THING TO THANK GOD FOR EVERY NIGHT.

  • Anonymous says:

    derrell is a likeable guy,He just should not comment after pulling out.

  • Armenian says:

    so Dirrrell won the fight with Froch who is saying he lost it? And yes he was winning the fight with Abraham till he faked the knock out. he got no balls and he thinks running is the best he can do in his life so run dirrell RUUUUUUUNNNN

  • Anonymous says:

    Well,As Derrell knows we dont want to hear his opinion because it may not be objective.The Derrell camp fully thought they would easily defeat Froch.

  • Armenian says:

    I dont care dirrell to tell the truth but he is back training again so he will fight next year and he just proved to us he was faking all.

    Ringside black man what u want from my nose? I never saw you asking me anything anywhere so come again.

  • rromijn says:

    sissi dirrel should predict next collection shown in paris

  • James Blond says:

    Dirrell is right on this one. Froch has blinked and everyone including AA have noticed.

  • Bi g T says:

    Dirrell is a fantastic athlete! At the 100 metres, the 400 metres, 1500, the marathon!!! Anything he can do to not fight.

    He needs to get down the job centre because he sure hasnt read his current job description correctly.

    Beep Beep here comes boxings road runner!! Beep Beep Dirrell coming through!

  • totally froched says:

    Froch is f*ckd if scotty and his live in lover dirrell think abraham is gonna win

  • Warped Design says:

    Dr Shawhi has refered Dirrel to the Wizard of Oz. Apparently the wizard succesfully resolved a similar issue suffered by a lion.

  • Booth get real says:

    Scott writes: “Dirrell should have won both of the fights he dominated Froch but lost the fight when two of the European judges gave Froch the decision over the American Dirrell.”

    That is wrong. Dirrell did not dominate. His work rate was to low. A writer should not ignore obvious things.

  • Stevie says:

    @boxfan 2945

    I see what ur saying, Frotch will struggle if Ward starts quick, Ward has more skill and talent than Frotch.

    Just for the record I have said in the past that Andre Ward in my opinion can become the p4p king. Its just at the minute I think Frotches rough tactics will unsettle him to the point where Ward cant get into his groove. Ward is a dirty fighter and i dont feel Frotch will let him get away with those tactics.

    Ward is a bit over protected and needs to fight away from oakland if he is to progress to the next level. However there is no doubt in my mind at least Ward is the future of the super middleweight division. Fighting Frotch away from oakland might be a step to far at the minute.

    Quick question, it doesnt seem that Ward has knockout power, (is this ur opinion?) do u c that as a problem? I personally dont.

    And for the record Dirrell is not in Wards league.

  • daved says:

    dirrel = sore LOSSSSSER!!!

  • Punchy Potorff says:

    The actor Dirrell should know… since he was a taco slice hair away from getting KTFO by AA. For once, I agree with him.

  • TOM BRITT says:

    RINGSIDE ABOUT DRE AND THE TAIL I DONT HAVE . OPEN YOUR EYES DRE ISNT IN THE TOURNEY ANY LONGER .

  • TOM BRITT says:

    RINGSIDE IF YOUR WORLD WAS BROADER THEN KINGS GYM WHERE YOU GET YOUR 90% THEN YOU MIGHT REALIZE FROCH BEAT THE PUNK UP. I WILL HOWEVER GIVE YOU THIS : DIRRELL HAS THE TALENT TO DO GREAT THINGS . BUT DOES HE HAVE THE HEART ? TELL HIM TO WATCH SUGAR RAY LENORDS PROGRESSION AS A BOXER TURNED BOXER FIGHTER AND TAKE IT FROM THERE. PS I AM SURPRISED AND ENCOURAGED TO REALIZE THAT YOU ADMIT THAT 10% OF THE GUYS AT KINGS GYM ADMITTED FROCH BEAT THE PUNK ON HIS OWN.

  • AA ALL THE WAY says:

    ARMO AND ARMEANIAN I CANT HEAR YOU. YOU MUST AGREE WITH THIS ONE .ON THE OTHER SIDE : HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THE GUY WHOS PREDICTING ? COULD THIS BE THE KISS OF DEATH ?

  • TOM BRITT says:

    SCOTT YOU DORK. DIRRELL GOT A DQ AGAINST ABRAHAM AS ABRAHAM WAS CHASING THE COWARD AROUND THE RING AND ABOUT TO INFLICT REAL PERMINATE DAMAGE ON HIM. IN NO WAY AS YOU STATE DID DIRRELL BEAT ABRAHAM.

  • 5th grader says:

    @FAN 2954 – I HAVE TO ADMIT AFTER 2954 WRONG PREDICTIONS THE ODDS MIGHT BE IN YOUR CORNER.

  • tom britt says:

    HEY DIRRELL PREDICTED HE WOULD WIN AGAINST FROCH. HOW DID THAT TURN OUT?

  • boxfan 2945 says:

    Stevie, i dont think Froch will be able to handle the pace of the fight with Ward. Froch does struggle against boxers with speed and movement like he was against taylor and dirrell until he got lucky and ward will totally outclass him. Froch has no chance against ward and hell get beat.

  • jayjay says:

    “Dirrell should have won both of the fights he dominated Froch”

    i didnt know that running away all night means dominating

  • Stevie says:

    Mr Scott Gilfoid for someone who doesnt rate Carl Frotch u sure do devote a lot of ur time and writing to him. I think the reason u hate him so much is the fact that he showed Dirrell for the limited, cowardly fighter he really is, and that really sticks in ur throat.
    It also may have to do with the fact that Frotch stands a pretty decent chance of beating ur other favourite Andre Ward. The tactics Ward gets away with against other opponents he will never get away with against Frotch. (nutting Kessler was no accident, at least not the second and 3rd time it happened). Frotch will fight fire with fire and Andre wont be able to handle it.

    As for this fight, its my opinion that Frotch hits just as hard as Abe, is a good bit bigger and has the heart to beat Abraham. Remember its widely acknowledged that Frotch is a big hitter at super middle, Abe may be a huge hitter at middleweight but he’s now stepping up to fight bigger guys. Thats the way I c it anyway.

  • Tony Y says:

    oh like it works out like that…he had it easier against anbraham and was beaten soundly on points by froch…after running all the way
